《Adventures of a Reluctant Pacifistic Monster》Ch. 3 The Adorable Quick Toed Porcupine
Advertisement
In a small dark cave, hidden away by fallen tree leaves, there was a small creature that interrupted the natural tranquility as it began to stir. As he came to, he started to feel the soft dirt under his body. That made him stretch his body and open his little eyes.
‘I hate that lunatic.’ Was his first waking thought. ‘I know that lunatic was messing with me; he could have kept me there for as long as he wanted! If I ever see him again… or hear him again, I’ll…I’ll… Well there’s nothing much you can do to a god. I know, I’ll just complain until he gets really annoyed, that’ll teach him!’
‘Ok, enough with the pettiness, I need to move on. It looks like I’m finally in the new world, but where am I though? This feels like a cave, it’s small but nice and cozy, it’ll make a great base for now. Well I think I’m relatively safe for now. I should really check what that lunatic did to me, now that I have some time. So, all I have to think is “status” right?’

‘Wow… there’s no words… almost. There’s just so many things I want to ask, like WHAT THE HELL is up with my name!? How old is that lunatic, five!? And I guess the child also added the pristine points system at least, not that I’m going to use them.
‘Alright never mind that. Next up, my race. Why did adding the word adorable raise my rank from G to F? Come on! Can I at least get some more information!’
Adorable Quick Toed Porcupine (F)

‘I was right, the fortune skill is totally going to be a huge pain in the ass. And I guess I was also wrong; the adorable skill is also going to screw me and make me a target for monsters.’
After letting out a sigh in resignation he tried to look on the bright side of things. ‘Come on man, stop being so negative. The skills might have their drawbacks but at least the benefits look amazing, plus with the combination of the vegetarian title and healthy digestion skill I can slowly grow stronger without having to fight monsters.’
‘Alright I think I checked everything, all that’s left is to finally check out the system store. That’s what started this whole 777 chaos and forcing me to meet that immature lunatic. I don’t really care about unlimited power; I can settle for the strongest in the world. I mean how is that not enough for some people? Now let’s see what goodies we have here.
‘Alright, store open.’

‘…… ok, what did that asshole do! Wait, wait it might just have just been a mistake, let’s try again, store open.’

Hello!!!
How are you enjoying your new life!!! Having fun yet!?
If your seeing this, it means you tried entering the filthy store.
But you don’t have to worry, I did you the favor of locking it and…
You won’t ever have to worry about it again!
Wow I’m such a nice guy, your so welcome!
Anyway, just say Pristine store to open the good store!
Bye! Bye!
‘FUCK! That lunatic screwed me again! I just wanted to live a good and easy life! What’s so wrong with that!’ As he was hit with a wave of depression, he just closed his eyes and let his body go limp. He lied there for a few minutes, just letting his dream of an easy life die. When he was finally done with his self-pity, he opened his eyes once more.
‘Whatever, I’m done. Let that lunatic do what he wants. I’ll just roll with the punches. I think it’s time I finally explore this new world I’m in. I’ll open the stupid store later.’
As he threw the bad thoughts to the back of his mind, he started to get exited at the thought of his first journey out of the cave.
‘ALRIGHT! Time for my first adventure! Should I give it a name? It’s my first time exploring this world, this is an important moment so I should totally give it a name. Oh, ok how about…’
‘Out of the Darkness and into the Wild; The First Great Exploration of Mr. Pine!’

Vanisher
Joshua Hall is an intelligent and promising college sophomore. But when he accidentally witnesses Sara Wilder, a new and quirky acquaintance, receive an eldritch mark of possibility from her mother, everything changes. Josh can now see marks, eldritch symbols of power brought from another plane of existence that empower the weak and the futureless, that are invisible to most. But that's not the only thing that he's seeing, as strange dreams haunt Josh's sleep and threaten to destroy his sanity. With his mind and body struggling to handle the impossible things he can now perceive, Josh has to decide: accept a mark himself, or attempt to forget everything. This is a bit of an experimental project for me, as it isn't my norm in genre or topic. Expect: -Slow build storytelling -Character details -Foreshadowing -Dialogue driven narrative -Dynamic action scenes -Some mild graphic descriptions of injury -Sexuality is a factor -No explicit content (at least not directly) -Mild body horror -Light cosmic horror Reviews and critique are highly encouraged. I am a civil and fair responder, don't be afraid to initiate a conversation.
